BTW, we do use hardlinks on Windows; even the MsysGit installer 
creates them (as long as the filesystem is NTFS). So, the fallout you 
are expecting/hoping for will not be in the first round of MinGW port 
patches. ;)

Would it be possible to add option to an installer to _not_ install 
git-cmd form for builtins when installing on FAT28^W FAT32?

It is the InnoSetup based installer that does that.  MSys has no way (yet) 
to create hard links (at least that's the state of my knowledge).
